hello everyone
I am so sorry that I am just posting today!
I am have been really slacking this week - well for my blog anyways
certainly not for the rest of my life that is for sure he he :-)
so I did this little project on Wed. I did it for my little chikie's birthday!
and it worked for the Stampaholics sketch I know I am so lame uh?
sorry my friends!
okay so here is the fabulous sketch that we had to work with!
Thank you Sage!
okay so here's what I did!
now I do have to say that I turned into a huge Easel Card after my time
and I do not have the exact time onto how long it took me!
sorry
I need to get a new Madame Vilaine as she is going on a trip this weekend!
She gets to hook up with Mr. Nasty! :-)
so I started with some Presto DSP
I love this DSP!
I used Old Olive and Marine Mist!
I also made little film strips
cute uh?
k let's see how this is coming together!
pretty cute uh?
then I put some pretty butterflies
embossed on velum
and then some Big Shot action!
it's going to be so special for my special daughters birthday!
The greeting is so cute!
so at this point I was like at 25 min
then I decided to put this wonderful page onto a very very
LARGE easel card HE HE :-)
I did some recycling
this is the backpiece to the Presto DSP
it's really nice and rigid
I covered it completly and created it into the large easel!
kinda a cool idea don't you think??
okay ready to see what it looks like???
sooooooo What do you think??
I did three litle ribbons and I coloured one of them to match the Certainly Celery Card stock!
I also used some Filbree brads I think that is correct wording right??
here is that up close!
now for more up close photos for you!
ribbon upclose!
hope you have enjoyed this post I know it's a bit different!
I want to say thank you for all your patiences with me lately
I am totally sorry for not posting every day
I promise to get back into the swing of things when I get back from Convention!
this is the side view of the large easel scrapbook card!

What a cool idea - scrapbook easel card. I love to display scrapbook pages so we can enjoy them before they get tucked away in an album.
I just downloaded the tutorial for the convention scallop circle card ... going to play now!
Thanks again.

Wow! That is an awesome scrapbook page/card. Lots of detail! The use of the spiral punch to make a filmstrip is clever. Happy bday to Renee'.

wow, this is very cool, what an amazingly good idea, you always come up with the Best ideas my Sis......by the way, Mr. Nasty is missing, is Madame Villiane missing too? I think he may have snuck away into my suitecase!.....

Oh my heavens this is one of your best cards/scrapbook pages yet. I get teary thinking how she must have loved this from her maman. You can see the love in every single bit of this. I have been worried about you not posting but hoped you were just getting ready for convention. See ya on Monday.
